A firestorm erupted amongst alternative
media after this website first
highlighted the inconceivable coincidence of Visor Consultants
holding an exercise which centered around bombs exploding in the exact areas
and at the same time as happened during the real 7/7 London Underground
attack.

However, no mainstream media has reported
on this massive story, instead focusing on drills that had taken place months
and years before the actual event.

Until now.

British Channel 4 News has produced a
special report which whitewashes the entire affair
as one big coincidence and attacks this website for even questioning the
unusual nature of the concurrent exercises and attacks on 7/7.

Before we offer a rebuttal to the perspective
of the report, it's interesting to relate the reaction of Visor managing
director Peter Power when he was questioned as to the lack of mainstream
media coverage on this issue.

Colman Jones, an Associate Producer on
CBS:Sunday Night, met Power at a conference on disaster management in Toronto.
As they were leaving the building he enquired of Power 'why there had not
been more media coverage of this.' 'They were trying to keep it quiet,'
Power purportedly responded, with what Jones called 'a knowing smile.'

Who is trying to keep it quiet? If this
is all just hot air as Channel 4 later go on to claim, then why is it being
kept secret? Why hasn't Power even revealed the name of the company he was
running the drill for?

Quoting from the Channel 4 report,

Visor's crisis team, Power explained,
were planning to practice the switch from what he called 'slow time' thinking
to the 'quick time' thinking required by a crisis situation. In the event,
they were forced to do so for real. 'Unusual though it may be to stop an
exercise and go into real time,' he comments, 'it worked very well - although
there were a few seconds when the audience didn't realise whether it was
real or not.'

After quoting our report and Al Jazeera
(who the Channel 4 writer JJ King failed to notice had just copied our article
wholesale and claimed it as their own), Channel 4 claim that this website
engaged in 'careless speculation' in that we failed to contact Visor.

All we were doing is drawing attention
to the comments that Power had made on both BBC
Radio 5 and ITN
News. Furthermore, Power refused to respond to anyone who wasn't
what he called 'accredited media' - and just sent the same template stock
e mail out to anyone who enquired about the drill.

Channel 4 and JJ King then state,

In fact, the 'exercises' he spoke
of on Five Live were carried out purely 'on paper', or at least PowerPoint,
by a small group of seven or eight executives (Power remains tight-lipped
about the client) seeking to examine the impact on corporate decision-making
of a potential crisis situation.

OK, let's take a step back here.

Channel 4 quoted Power earlier as saying
that when the real attack began, the exercise switched from 'slow time'
to 'quick time' thinking and that Visor stopped the exercise and went into
'real time'. This, coupled with comments previously made by Power, suggests
that Visor had some kind of active role in the command structure in dealing
with the management of the crisis, the real attack. How can the exercise
have just been paper based when Visor started managing the real attack,
not the scripted one, after it happened?

Even putting this aside for a moment,
the drill need not have any link whatsoever to the attack as it unfolded,
but still could have been cited by the government as a fallback excuse had
any of their operatives been caught in the act of facilitating the bombings.
This was the point of our original article and we made it clear that Visor
and Peter Power could have been completely unwitting dupes in this process.
In fact that would have been the favourable because it reduces the chance
of good people stepping forward and blowing the whistle if they discovered
the real agenda.

In the light of a brief interview
with Power, the 'unbelievable' coincidence of events suddenly seems entirely
comprehensible: the train stations targeted, after all, were all in central
London -- any planner would pick these amongst a list of possible targets.

Take a look
at a map of the tube stations. Factor in the amount of different
stations with the fact that the exercises targeted the exact same stations
at the exact same time as the real event happened.

Then consider the fact that the exercises
planned simultaneous bombs going off in different stations. The fact that
the 7/7 attacks were simultaneous bombs only emerged two days after the
event, making the coincidence theory even less plausible.

One individual calculated
the likelihood of this being just a coincidence. The odds were
one in 3,715,592,613,265,750,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. This is obviously
a figure open to conjecture but it gives you an idea of the ballpark improbability
we are talking about.

Channel 4 cite poison gas attack drills
on the Underground and a BBC documentary which dramatised an attack on the
Underground as proof that the Visor drill was very much part of a trend
and nothing more than a coincidence. This misses the point entirely.

Again we have to repeat, the key elements
of the Visor drill are that the exact same locations were targeted at the
exact same time as the real attack. This is beyond coincidence. We are aware
that there were other drills and the mainstream media has covered them over
and over again. Why haven't they covered this one?

The group in question was Abu Hafs al
Masri Brigade. Previous investigations by the Boston
Globe and others concur that this group doesn't exist and is
likely to be one man sat at a computer.

So Sky News might as well have reported
that Intergalactic Imperial Reptoids claimed responsibility for the attack,
because their existence is just as flimsy as Abu Hafs, and yet it is the
alternative media that consistently gets lambasted for bad journalism?

The tide is turning, newspaper sales are
down, TV news viewers are falling. The mainstream media has lost all credibility
and people are turning to those who actively seek the truth rather than
actively seek to suppress it.

Even in the face of this barrage from
both sloppily researched 'special reports' and government hackers trying
to shut our websites down, we will continue to cover the events in London
with a skeptical eye. In fact the more we are attacked, the more we will
re-double our efforts to reach more people.

The truth will always triumph over the
scoffing sardonic whims of establishment media news whores.
